PLAGUE. Un editor visual para PDDL

Plague es un editor de archivos escritos en lenguajes de planificación como STRIPS y PDDL, que permite lanzar el algoritmo GrahPlan a partir de los archivos de dominio y problema editados y encontrar una solución al problema planteado. El objetivo del editor es eminentemente pedagógico: su uso es muy simple y viene con variados ejemplos de ambos lenguajes de planificación, de modo que el usuario pueda aprenderlos de forma paulatina. Además, la salida de la ejecución permite ir viendo paso a paso el desarrollo del algoritmo GraphPlan: los operadores que se van ejecutando, los no-ops que se han seguido, los mutex que se han aplicado en cada nivel y el tiempo empleado, además de la solución final al problema si se alcanza. El programa hace uso de dos utilidades que permiten compilar el código STRIPS o PDDL que son JavaGP y PDDL4J. Una vez ejecutado el problema de planificación, se obtiene la salida en pantalla y también se puede imprimir el problema completo incluida la solución. El objetivo ha sido crear un programa que permita al usuario editar rápidamente archivos STRIPS y PDDL, los pueda compilar velozmente y obtener el resultado en un solo sitio, con una salida mucho más clara, organizada y entendible y se evite el problema de tener que usar editores externos y una ventana de línea de comando para ejecutar GraphPlan. Plague is a text editor for files written in action languages, such as STRIPS and PDDL, which allows running the GraphPlan algorithm from the domain archives and edited problems, and finding a solution to the proposed problem. The goal of the editor is primarily for pedagogical purposes: it is simple to use and comes equipped with a variety of examples in both action languages, so that the user can gradually learn. In addition, as the editor runs it allows the user to observe the step by step development of the GraphPlan algorithm: the operators being executed, the no-ops that have been followed, the mutex applied at each level and the time spent, as well as the final answer to the problem, if reached. The program uses two utilities allowing the STRIPS or PDDL code to be compiled: JavaGP and PDDL4J. Once the planning problem has been executed, the result is shown on screen and the complete problem can also be printed, including the solution. The objective has been to create a program that allows the user to quickly edit STRIPS and PDDL archives, to compile them swiftly and obtain the solution in a single place, with a result that is clear, organised and understandable, thus avoiding the problem of having to use external editors and command prompts to execute GraphPlan.

Una codificación prefija para un idioma artificial

This work focuses in the formal and technical analysis of some aspects of a constructed language. As a first part of the work, a possible coding for the language will be studied, emphasizing the pre x coding, for which an extension of the Hu man algorithm from binary to n-ary will be implemented. Because of that in the language we can't know a priori the frequency of use of the words, a study will be done and several strategies will be proposed for an open words system, analyzing previously the existing number of words in current natural languages. As a possible upgrade of the coding, we'll take also a look to the synchronization loss problem, as well as to its solution: the self-synchronization, a t-codes study with the number of possible words for the language, as well as other alternatives. Finally, and from a less formal approach, several applications for the language have been developed: A voice synthesizer, a speech recognition system and a system font for the use of the language in text processors. For each of these applications, the process used for its construction, as well as the problems encountered and still to solve in each will be detailed.

Tthe right to effective judicial protection and disability: the convention on the rights of persons with disabilities

On 13 December 2006, the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). It is the first comprehensive human rights treaty of the 21st century. The Convention is intended as a human rights instrument with an explicit, social development dimension. It adopts a broad categorization of persons with disabilities and reaffirms that all persons with all types of disabilities must enjoy all human rights and fundamental freedoms. Precisely, the Convention marks a 'paradigm shift' in attitudes and approaches to persons with disabilities The Convention contains two articles directly connected with judicial effective protection, one more than the other, but on the other hand, one cannot be understood without the other. Both articles are Article 12 –Equal recognition before the law- and Article 13 –access to justice- As a scholar in Procedural Law, my contribution to the International Scientific Congress on Private Law of the Philippines and Spain aims to enshrine the relevant importance of the both provisions that guarantee effective judicial protection for persons with disabilities in order to analyze, subsequently, the implementation of them in Spanish legislation
